PM Boris Johnson - monster thread for a monster twat

Angela Rayner seems to have mangled the obvious "rearranging the deckchairs" metaphor,

Responding to the reshuffle, Labour deputy leader Angela Rayner said the prime minister should instead focus on "an inflation crisis created in Downing Street and supporting the mental health of our children and young people. What was Boris Johnson doing? Reshuffling the deckchairs when he's already hit an iceberg," she added.

but making the chief whip the new leader of the house looks more like circling the wagons.

Nostalgia mode: I'm old enough to remember when Harry Ramsden's was a coach trip to West Yorkshire.

Further Nostalgia Related Derail: their website says they now don't have a restaurant in West Yorkshire. :(

There's one at Leeds Skelton Services on the M1, although they might have omitted it from their website on account of it being a franchise operated by Welcome Break.

that's a really stupid post. really stupid. like dead mps are the only metric. if you think of the rise in xenophobia since the referendum, if you think of the attacks on the women's vigil after the rape and murder of sarah everard, if you think of all the things priti patel's said in the last 2 years, yeh it is getting nastier. all the trans/terf stuff. all the misogynist abuse and death threats and rape threats and so on that women mps - or indeed any woman who puts her head over the parapet - get. if you think. but your posts don't have the hallmark of thought.

I suspect that the pollsters were attempting to gauge respondents views regarding political discourse post-Brexit( post-Johnson as a significant player) and alighted on 5 rather than 6 years. Not sure it's a biggie, tbh.

Went to a local chippy a few years ago and he was saying how clean the chip fat was and how he changed it every day or couple of days and how disgusting it was that chippies didn't change their chip fat for days on end. His chips were fucking rank though :eek:

On a sadder note Mac's chip shop in Redruth, which was my favourite of all the ones I've been to in Cornwall, has closed down :(

Best chips I ever had was in Whitby, with a close second a chippy in North London that fried em in matzo powder - kosher chips!
 
Is this Rees-Mogg-as-Minister for Brexit Opportunities a real thing, or have I imagined it (feeling a bit feverish and ill today and wonder if I hallucinated)?
Unbelievable if so, how can satirists compete with that? Rees-Mogg, the man who moved his investment company to Dublin after the referendum so as to continue benefiting from trading within the EU without tariffs etc? Are you having a laugh? Opportunities? Rees-Mogg who said we would have to wait 50 years before the benefits of Brexit were apparent?

And another thing. What's with these stupid titles, like Minister for Levelling Up or Minister for Brexit Opportunities? I can remember when these posts had serious names like Home or Foreign Secretary or Chancellor. Not this comic book nonsense, no wonder we're the joke of Europe. FFS where's the dignity? What next, Patel as Minister for Refugee Welfare or Gove as Minister for Dance?

IT MAKES ME SEETHE

Ah! I know that Leigh St one, not far from work (I'm still re-orienting and re-familiarising myself after months of working from home). Yes, they are indeed top quality.

The Rock and Sole Plaice on Endell St in Covent Garden isn't bad (despite the atrocious pun). I think the matzo batter one may have been the Fryer's Delight on Theobalds Road, d'you know that one Pickmans?

Glad to hear about Rye, as I may be in the area this Spring for a mini-break with the missus. Thanks for the tip :thumbs:

IKWYM, but maybe Savile's name catches the eye of many/most and the issue has more recognition than might be expected of a Westminster spat? Also can't tell from that tweet what % were D/Ks etc.
